Dubai to build
1500km under water
rail tunnel to India
VERDICT
Bullshit
Not a hope in hell this one
can work. Too far, too costly,
too unsafe. Forget it</a></label><br><a href="https://gruene.social/system/media_attachments/files/113/821/272/399/771/060/original/0a93782d10d02058.jpeg" rel="external">https://gruene.social/system/media_attachments/files/113/821/272/399/771/060/original/0a93782d10d02058.jpeg</a></li><li><label><a rel="external" href="https://gnusocial.jp/attachment/3905091">Jon Worth's Rail Story Bullshit Meter

Good idea, don't believe it
Not enough detail yet to know
if this will work, and when, and no
way in 2025</a></label><br><a href="https://gruene.social/system/media_attachments/files/113/821/272/672/035/977/original/0dcd3be851ea566a.jpeg" rel="external">https://gruene.social/system/media_attachments/files/113/821/272/672/035/977/original/0dcd3be851ea566a.jpeg</a></li><li><label><a rel="external" href="https://gnusocial.jp/attachment/3905092">Jon Worth's Rail Story Bullshit Meter
